Give the man a prize. That's is the main reason people are QQ'ing in the first place.
It was never the Madruger or Gunnlogi or how powerful they were. Even before 1.7 they were still hard to take down with AV weapons. There are two key problems Harpyja pointed out maybe even more.
1.) Militia Variant Tanks have massive power with no skill point investment. You can make a Soma better than a Madruger with little to nothing dumped into skilling vehicles.
2.) Running Militia Tanks have High rewards at low risk. This seems familiar (Tactical Ar 514, Flaylock 514, CalLogi 514, and etc. I don't know all of them and I just made up a few). You can run these powerful Militia tanks at about as much you would spend on a full dropsuit not even prototype. Knowing that, people can run these tanks get massive kills and do not care if they lose their tank. That brings me to number
3.) Low ISK cost = SPAMMATUDE!!!! With low ISK cost around a full dropsuit that could even be or for sure way less than a full prototype suit, people are not afraid to lose these Militia Tanks. There are some matches where I have been in a game and will see 3-5 enemy tanks on the field. 5 times out of 10, that team will win. There is the other 5 where they will not. The point is, players are making the Militia tanks turn into the auto win button. This especially in any domination or ambush game.
To AV players: We need to understand that sometimes that one weapon or person is the absolute one answer. Sometimes we do need to team up with each other and other tankers to take out the enemy tanks. Sometime we are good by ourselves. Sometimes we need to be creative and sneaky to take down tanks but know that THE AV NADES ARE NOT THE ABSOLUTE ANSWER TO EVERYTHING. You will see how when I mention the tankers.
To Tankers: I understand that one person should not blow up a tank. However there are times where you guys need to understand that tanks should not be the absolute answer.
To BOTH: Best way I can put this is pre 1.7 Lai Dai AV or any other AV weapon and for the sake of argument have versus all tiers of tanks (MILITIA, STD, ADV, and PRO. in other words, pretend that we had all the tiers). That AV should be able to 1 or 2 shot a militia tank since it is the weakest, 3-4 shot a standard, 4-6 an advance meaning they would need a nanohive and some help, and finally 6 or greater a proto meaning that person is going to need all the help they could get. This is not accounting the modules or driving skills. |
